This is a children's story that is a bit different.
One day, the sun didn't rise
Much to our suprise

We all waited and waited all night
We waited for our sky to be light

But the sun...

Never Came

My daddy tried to make the sun rise
He begged the sun, but that didn't work
He cried at the sun, but that didn't work
He tried and tried and tried...

Finally!
A light in the sky!
What do I see with my little eye??
The sun?!
No....

Just the moon...

The neighborhood wanted the sun
The entire city wanted the sun
The whole world! wanted the sun!
Without it, life wasn't much fun!

One night everybody just gave up
No more begging...
No more crying...
No more sorrow...

Maybe the sun will rise again tomorrow...
